Course Description

ODC 751 INTERVENTION RESEARCH & ADVANCED QUAL.   2.0 Credit(s)
As a follow-on to ODC 750 (Qualitative Methods), this course is a natural continuation, focusing on the direct application of the six traditional qualitative inquiry approaches, and the combination & triangulation of qualitative methodologies. Using organization science scenarios, students engage in analytical processes to advance their knowledge and understanding of coding, interpretive analyses, and bias abatement, among other techniques. The application of qualitative inquiry in intervention research is covered and applied, exploring action research, design-based research, appreciative inquiry, and other intervention research methods. A broader exploration of advanced and nontraditional qualitative methods, including storytelling, qualitative meta-analysis, and cognitive ethnography are also introduced.
